Psalms 122

1 [the] song of The ascents of David I rejoiced in [those who] said to me [the] house of Yahweh let us go.

Rwiyo rworwendo rwaDhavhidhi. Ndakafara pavakati kwandiri, “Handei kumba yaJehovha.”

2 Standing they were feet our in gates your O Jerusalem.

Tsoka dzedu dzimire mukati mamasuo ako, iwe Jerusarema.

3 Jerusalem which was built like a city that was joined together to itself together.

Jerusarema rakavakwa seguta rakapakata kwazvo.

4 Where there they went up tribes [the] tribes of Yahweh a testimony to Israel to give thanks to [the] name of Yahweh.

Ndiko kunokwira marudzi, iwo marudzi aJehovha, kundorumbidza zita raJehovha maererano nezvakatemerwa Israeri.

5 For there - they sat thrones for judgment thrones of [the] house of David.

Zvigaro zvokutonga zvimire ikoko, zvigaro zvoushe zveimba yaDhavhidhi.

6 Ask for [the] peace of Jerusalem may they be at ease [those who] love you.

Nyengetererai rugare rweJerusarema: “Vanokuda dai vagara zvakanaka.

7 May it be peace in rampart your ease in fortresses your.

Dai mukati mamasvingo ako maita rugare, nokuchengetedzeka mukati menhare dzako.”

8 For [the] sake of brothers my and friends my I will speak please peace [be] in you.

Nokuda kwehama neshamwari dzangu, ndichati, “Rugare ngaruve mukati mako.”

9 For [the] sake of [the] house of Yahweh God our I will seek good of you.

Nokuda kweimba yaJehovha Mwari wedu, ndichatsvaka kubudirira kwako.
